I love it!

its very small.

We've had two previous Nine Stars Motion Sensor trashcans; lasted years. In fact, our old one is still working. But we saw this one and liked the new style, so we ordered it. The first one came in with two dents in it. Contacted Nine Stars both by phone and email and did not receive a reply. So I called Sam's CS and the lady shipped a replacement immediately and sent us a prepaid return label for the damaged one. Got the new one - no dents, so that was good. It's been three weeks now and within the past week the lid simply doesn't open. At other times it doesn't close completely and we have to shut it manually, rather defeating the whole purpose. We put new batteries in AGAIN, just in case, but it's still not working. Based on the lack of response from Nine Stars, we're going to return it. It's much lighter weight than our old one, too. Luckily, we didn't throw that out, so back into the kitchen it goes. And I did eventually just a couple of days ago, get a response from "Angela" at Nine Stars to my email: saying that they could not reply to my email, as their email address was "under construction". What??? How did she email me then? I only wish I was joking. Kudos to Sam's Club for their excellent customer service. Thumbs down to Nine Stars.

Plastic feels very cheap. Doesnt feel sturdy at all for the price you are paying for it.

Poor quality

Hi! Moved into our new home and we were anxious to set up our new trash can! More classy than I would ever have pursued, but it looked so nice with all of my new appliances and since there is not someplace for me to tuck the trash can into a corner, this seemed perfect and it covers, conceals any odors and I couldn't be happier! Until after about 30-40 days although it appears to be lighting up and working as it was, the lid no longer opens. If I can open it manually, it will not stay open, so we've had to remove the lid entirely. Yes, we replaced the batteries, same results. Is there something that we are missing? We really do not want to return our pretty trash can =) Afterall, since when could you use pretty and trash in the same sentence??

I needed a trash can for our guest house so I bought one at local walmart while doing grocery shopping. Well? I got home and installed batteries, turned it on and nothing worked, and have to go back and get a new one, and hope this one works, it is a fair price compare with ITouch we bought on line, hope it will last.

* Convenient automatic open trash can but may open with nothing in front it, and scary when watching a scary movie with my husband not home. * Nice, oblong shape to fit in narrower spaces, the black top felt plasticy and cheap.* Model takes 2 D batteries which is powerful and long gevity, but hard to get such battery, and they are not cheap. * Battery chambers rusted and top became non-functional.

I was very happy with this product. Then at two years old the lid stopped working. I tried changing all the batteries and I cleaned everything - nothing helped. Contacted Mfg Ninestars - did not receive a reply. It should work for longer than two years, and the Mfg should reply to inquiries. I DON'T RECOMMEND BUYING THIS.

Even with new batteries, the lid opens when it wants to. The inside containers don't come out, so it's a hassle taking the bags out. The plastic lid liner is flimsy so it doesn't hold the bags good. I hate I ordered this trash can. I used it about two weeks and it's been in the box ever since. I put it to the side to return it, and began using my old Walmart trash can again. I forgot to return it, and now I'm stuck with it.
